Texas: JTTF warned that Middle Eastern men are getting driver’s licenses with Hispanic names

Jun 9, 2014 8:24 am By Robert Spencer

Crossing Mexico BorderThis “presents a technique that possible terrorists or members of sleeper cells could use to escape notice.” For “foremost is the change in identity and ability to mingle in the predominantly Hispanic community without arousing suspicion, because of their darker skin tone, resembling local Hispanics.” And remember: to be concerned about this would be “racist” and “Islamophobic,” because after all, these men must be changing their names because of rampant “Islamophobia” in the U.S., right?

“Middle Eastern Men Are Getting Driver’s Licenses With Hispanic Names,” PoliceOne.com, May 25, 2014 (thanks to Todd):

PoliceOne warns officers that people of middle eastern ethnicity are changing their names or presenting themselves as hispanics in order to disguise their ethnicity and better blend into their communities. While this has been common practice among immigrants in the past, it presents a technique that possible terrorists or members of sleeper cells could use to escape notice.

The Texas Department of Public Safety informed the San Antonio Division Joint Terrorism Task Force that individuals of Middle Eastern descent are obtaining new Texas driver’s licenses with Hispanic surnames.

Approximately 20 individuals of Middle Eastern origin are utilizing the Travis County (Austin, Texas) District Court each week to change their names and driver’s licenses from Middle Eastern to Hispanic surnames.

The process involves submitting a form and fingerprints to the District Court. The Austin JTTF is investigating the applicants and application process with the Texas Department of Safety and investigators from the Travis County District Attorney’s office. At this time it is unknown as to how widespread these driver’s license changers are.

San Antonio has multiple concerns about these driver license changes. Foremost is the change in identity and ability to mingle in the predominantly Hispanic community without arousing suspicion, because of their darker skin tone, resembling local Hispanics.

Second is the lack of security afforded the fingerprint cards, allowing the possibility of substitution by individuals of concern by individuals who would not arouse suspicion. These driver license changes may not be limited to Hispanic surnames but might involve common names or other ethnicities.

Considering the current threat reporting and the frequent presence of President Bush within the State of Texas, San Antonio would like to determine how widespread this practice of driver’s license change is in border states and nationwide.

San Antonio Division will focus on determining the true identity, background and reason for those individuals of Middle Eastern descent who have changed their identity to Hispanic.

If you have any questions regarding the information in this report, please call El Paso I.C.A.T., 915-872-5775.

    What sings a call of duty to prayer hides in this wretched devil’s lair.
    Seduced by lyrics of a prophetic liar, its song is Satan’s unholy desire.

    Just wondering, how many “Jesus” mohammedans are out there?

      Angemon
      You have got to be kidding
      If you mean Jesus as pronounce in in ‘Hay Zeus’ why not just say Jose or Juan as an example instead.
      — a bit of a mixed metaphor message here.

        No, i purposely said Jesus. Think of the irony of having a mohammedan going by the name Jesus.

    LOL. Imagine meeting a muslim, born somewhere in the middle-east, having a hispanic name. Not to say it’s not happening. ‘The mosque is thataway, Jaun.’

      Its really not funny be ause it really is happening.

    There could be more than one reason for this. Maybe some of them really are converts to Christianity and are concerned about the penalty for apostasy…. therefore, the change in identity to help hide them from those who might want to kill them.

    • Islamisdeath says

      Jun 9, 2014 at 1:19 pm

      I assure you they are not converting. Hamas is taking over the drug trade down there, cartels have only recently started whacking off heads, we are being invaded. They are truly at war with us and we just sit here like fools and talk about amnesty and the absolute horror of islamaphobia while the imam in the white house dreams of his position and giant compound he will get when the caliphate is instituted.

        It is a done deal.
        There are dozens of Hezbullah Cells already in the US.
        They are led by Qubts Force Cadre from Iran. They
        will pick a day and strike across the US killing
        thousands. They came thru the Southern Border.

      the mosque is porous

      some will never have goatmeat burritos again
      and others will leave the lentils, preferring pintos

      and many will pray with their eyes on the Cross o f Jesus and the opened grave and be joyful

  5. Islamisdeath says

    This has been going on for many years. They are marrying hispanic women, changing their names and walking across the border in Texas. Now all that needs to happen is for the imam in the white house to push thru amnesty and the bastards are citizens! Course to be against amnesty is to be racist. Cant have that better just let them all in and let the slaughter begin. Better that than to be racist.

    Texas: JTTF warned that Middle Eastern men are getting driver’s licenses with Hispanic names
    ……………………………

    This is disturbing, but hardly surprising. More and more Muslims are coming to Mexico and other parts of Latin American, where there is likely to be less scrutiny of travelers from Dar-al-Islam—and more general chaos for them to thrive in.

    Some of them are establishing themselves there—like Hizb’allah in the “Triple Frontier” region of South America—and running the drugs and arms trade.

    And increasingly, they are also walking across our infamously porous southern border—just like the Hispanics they are impersonating.

    Look closely, the article is dated 2004 on the original website.

    However, it’s quite likely that jihadists are using the present situation of open borders to enter for future attacks.

    As I noted on my blog two years ago:

    Even a Latina herself — Arizona Congressional candidate Gabriela Sauceda Mercer — pointed out the obvious which so many, even in the Counter-Jihad, refuse to acknowledge. Speaking in the context of the problem of immigration from south of the border into America and the fact that, according to the news report from Reuters linked above, “…authorities in the previous year nabbed 25,000 illegal immigrants who were other than Mexican nationals…”, Ms. Mercer said:

    “That includes Chinese, Middle Easterners. If you know Middle Easterners, a lot of them they look Mexican or like a lot of people in South America – dark skin, dark hair, brown eyes, and they mix in…”

    And Ms. Mercer went on to note another unremarkable fact that, unfortunately, most Westerners haven’t fully digested as they doze pleasantly hitting the snooze alarm on their digital clock still flashing 9:11 —

    “And those people, their only goal in life is to cause harm to the United States, so why do we want them here, either legally or illegally?”

      Moreover, many Latinas are marrying the Muhammadan savages and bearing their children. I’ve seen it. It’s sickening.

      Things will only get worse–much worse.

      Islam: where freedom ends and slavery begins.

    LOL this is from May 25, 2004 but the folks from this website dated it to May 25, 2014. If they would doctor something as basic and easy to verify as that one must wonder what other lies they are telling.

      ”LOL this is from May 25, 2004 but the folks from this website dated it to May 25, 2014. If they would doctor something as basic and easy to verify as that one must wonder what other lies they are telling”

      No, it isn’t. Click on the link and even a moron like you should be able to read the date; **May 25, 2014**.

      It is indeed easy to verify, so why didn’t you ?

      The only liar here is you.

      What crap from LEN. This is an ongoing danger, and has been addressed many times before at Jihad Watch.

    Muslims are using Latina females as a front. Several years ago I was at a bus stop in Orange County, Southern California. I spoke to a couple at the bus stop, mentioning God. The Latina woman smiled and said: “We’re Catholics!” The male was NOT Hispanic! His features were definitely Arabic. He didn’t speak a single word, remaining silent.

    The article IS from 2004 not 2014. It’s not a typo. If you read down it refers to President Bush visiting frequently….

    Hispanics get affirmative-action handouts and employment preferences. Middle-Eastern ethnics, not so much.
